Reaching out to see if there's a way to change the text that students see when posting in a discussion set to "Users must post first before seeing replies". Now the students see this:
Is this something that we can change/edit?
Thank you!
Hi @PhyliseBanner ...
There isn't any kind of setting in Canvas that I am aware of that would let you change this wording for discussion topics. And, I also don't know if it is possible to change this programmatically via your Canvas administrator(s). I don't know if the Canvas code could be modified or if there could be any custom JavaScript or CSS code that could be added at the global Canvas account level that would modify that wording. Keep in mind that if you are asking about doing this in your own course, then those modifications would also carry over into other courses that you aren't teaching. Other instructors might not want the wording that you are looking to change. This all would need to be a conversation you'd need to have with your school's Canvas admin or someone from your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team.
I hope this will be of some help. Good luck!

I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
